HP OfficeJet Pro 8025 All-in-One Printer
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

This is totally a customer service discrepancy that there is No option/icon to resize image before printing with HP Smart windows 10. There is absolutely no way to scale an image down for printing. No Icon/"Pencil" to access. Why would HP do something so stupid when their proprietary software doesn't even have basic tools for editing. Unacceptable and if I need to purchase another printer in the near future it definitely "WON'T BE A HP PRODUCT".......

Welcome to the HP English Community --

 

You must, of course, do what you think best.

All the major manufacturers produce decent products.

 

The printer lacks any knowledge of what it is printing.

Options to resize the print are available depending on the application / software you are using.

 

The smarter your application or software, the more control you have over the results.

This is true for any brand printer --

 

Examples -- (Not all inclusive)

 

HP Smart and Windows (Microsoft) Photos both include selected-size and cropping printing options.

Additional Windows apps and software provide access to sizing options for both images and documents.
